Beautiful sunny day,no more snow,touch wood,and roads seem a bit clearer but still no buses on our route.

Cats still refuse to go out despite having lovely fur coats.

So,this is global warming then!!

Please be extra alert if you have elderly neighbours

Copied this from Yahoo News

A pensioner is feared to have collapsed in her garden and frozen to death, police have said. body of Lillian Jenkinson, 80, in her back garden in Workington, Cumbria, at 10.40am on Thursday.

The day before an elderly man was also found dead in his garden in Kirby Stephen, also in Cumbria. It is not currently known how long he lay undetected.

So sad, hard to believe this still happens

Oh Dear
Think it has already dropped to -7C tonight

No more snow as yet, but side roads very slippery.

Take care

Linda :o) XxX

No snow here today, nice bit of sun to look at, but freezing cold. Temp outside is just down to freezing. Was lying on the bed with my feet up as instructed, so didnt put the heating on again after 1pm as i was snuggled under a fleece blanket doing crossstitch. But i got too cold even then and had to get up and put the heating on. Takes me about an hour to warm up, and now i read that people with underactive thyroid are very susceptible to cold. So now I know why my hands are freezing when Oh is nice and warm!

It was minus 9 at 9am this morning hate to think what it is now.

Will put the thermometer out and check:)

Sorry to say my neighbour,who lived across the road from us, died on Monday from a heart attack,while clearing snow.
He was a really lovely fella,always helping others.I feel so sad for his wife.

So sorry to read this Mau
Will be a horrid time of year now for his family
My Uncle also died on Monday in Toronto Canada, also a heart attack, but he had ongoing health problems.

Thinking of all those who knew your neighbour.

Temperature about 2C yes that is +
Still looks very slippery outside. Hoping it will melt and go away but doubt it and another freeze tonight predicted. So will probably be worse.

Think we will be staying in until Hubby goes to work again at lunchtime.

Have a safe day everyone

A lot warmer here in Conwy today. We had rain last evening and throughout the night. Most of the snow has gone now apart from on the hills.
